translation Exclusive: An infiltrated lab rat at a facility in China managed to escape a technician by climbing onto the back of her hazmat suit and clinging to it for ten minutes while she searched for her.
Laboratory and rodents
Surveillance camera footage from a laboratory in Shanghai showed a laboratory worker taking rodents out of their cages to weigh them when three of them jumped and ran away.
Mouse and rodent
The footage showed the laboratory worker looking for the mouse while it was lying on the floor to look under the cabinets while the rodent clings to it and scrambles on its back without her noticing, according to the British newspaper “Daily Mail”.
Mask and suit
The laboratory worker, who was wearing a mask and protective suit, was apparently unable to spot the rodent even when it was clinging to her front.
Corona Virus
Notably, Chinese animal testing facilities have been under scrutiny since allegations first emerged that a “laboratory leak” in Wuhan was the root cause of the coronavirus outbreak.
